Goode first appeared on the series as Finn Polmar, a new prosecutor in the State's Attorney office, in Sunday's shocking episode, in which Will Gardner (Charles) was gunned down after his client (Hunter Parrish) went on a shooting rampage in court.

In a press release for the April 13th episode, Goode is listed as a series regular.

There's no word yet on Goode's status for The Good Wife's sixth season.
